When Ryan bid farewell to the new Class 7 and Tida, he came to Dr. Schmidt's workshop, the doctor was frowning at the old pocket watch in his hand.

"You are 1 minute late... Forget it, your weapon has been transformed, so transport it back today. If you have nothing to do, I will leave soon. I still have a lot of experiments to do."

Ryan had no choice but to spread his hands, "Doctor, don't be so anxious to drive people away. Last time I went to find Dr. Russell, he wasn't so unkind."

"snort!"

Hearing the names of his fellow disciples, Dr. Schmidt frowned unhappily, "I don't know what you plan to let Russell make a God-riding weapon, but since you asked me to keep it a secret, I'm not talking nonsense."

"In terms of technology alone, it is an indisputable fact that Russell has always lagged behind me. The Knight weapon I made is better in terms of stability than his works. I hope you can think about it carefully next time you place an order."

Ryan shrugged with a hilarious look, “I have heard the same words on Dr. Russell, who said your work is too rigid and lacks imagination…”

"What?!"

When Dr. Schmidt heard someone questioning his skills, he jumped up and said, "Nothing! Russell's imaginative thinking that day had problems, I..."

Halfway through, Dr. Schmidt suddenly stopped and sighed, "Oh~"

Then he sat back on the sofa in the lounge area, closing his eyes seemed to calm his emotions, but Ryan could feel a little depressed from him.

"Russell's skills have been perfectly inherited by Erica. His granddaughter now has great technical strength. On the other hand, my disciple... is it really me wrong?"

Among Dr. Schmidt's three disciples, Franz Rugman, the eldest disciple who was most trusted and respected, died young.

The second disciple Makarov did not agree with some of his extreme ideas and ran to Tolz's school to serve as an instructor.

The third disciple George Nome is kind and has a low emotional intelligence, and does not agree with Dr. Schmidt's abandonment of all ideas for technology.

Dr. Schmidt, who is 72 years old, is still alone, and there is not even a caring disciple around him who can help him die and inherit all his legacy skills. No wonder he suddenly showed his envy of Dr. Russell.

But he was still Dr. Schmidt after all, and his temporary weakness and hesitation were quickly swept aside by his firm belief in pursuing technology throughout his life.

"Well, just see a corner of Russell's technology from the alternate disciple. I want to see what qualifications he has to say."

‘Are you qualified to talk about others…’

Shaking his head and shook these thoughts apart, Ryan straightened his face and asked Dr. Schmidt, "Doctor, how have you studied Bai Shen Ji? Have you found the source of the mysterious side power?"

Dr. Schmidt also became serious when he talked about this topic. "I have disassembled and installed the machine from beginning to end several times, but I can only get the same result."

"In terms of structure, the white divine machine does not have a device to annihilate space. Although the energy transmission line is very fine, from the perspective of Russell and I, it is nothing more than a disciple-level technical means. The key is..."

"The mysterious side problem... right?"

"Hmph~" Dr. Schmidt snorted, acquiescing Ryan's question. "From the current situation, we can only guess that Zero's treasure gave it some supernatural ability when driving the White God Machine...tsk!"

Speaking of this, Dr. Schmidt smacked his lips unhappily. "Although as a technician, I don't want to draw such a conclusion, the body can only exert its spatial annihilation ability under special conditions, and studying it will not help technological progress at all."

"On the contrary, it's the automatic production assembly line you brought back from the Fifth Development Department of the RF Group during the Civil War."

Dr. Schmidt said calmly with his hands folded in his chest, "I have studied it thoroughly. I handed the sample drawings to President Irina before leaving Lu Lei yesterday. She should try to produce a set in the near future. If it can be popularized..."

Ryan rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, "It may have a huge impact on today's industrial system..."

There are still few automated production equipment nowadays. Once the RF Group popularizes this automated production line of the Black Workshop, countless workers in the empire will be unemployed as a result. The subsequent social impact will not be a joke.

"This matter must be carefully considered and cannot be rashly put into practical application."

Ryan pondered for a while and said, "I'll go to Lure in person to ask President Irina to suspend the production line, at least... it's definitely not possible this year."

...

Kapuya Express commissioned to transport the new weapon of the God of Riding God delivered by Dr. Schmidt back to Ordis. Ryan said goodbye to the second branch where the school officially started and hurriedly rode a heavy guide locomotive back to Heimdal.

However, when he was about to return to Ordis immediately on the Unicorn Lion, Olibath suddenly sent someone to send news from the Palace of Balfreme.

The prime minister has learned of this fully automatic production line and is convincing Yukent III to put it into practical use on a large scale.

"So fast?!"

Ryan didn't bother to board the ship, so he immediately turned to Delekels Square. With Olibart's invitation, he successfully entered the Balfrem Palace.

At this time, Yukent III had recruited several senior officials from the Imperial Government, and through the offices arranged by the various territorial governments in Heimdal, informing the heads of the four famous families of the matter.

Ryan strode into Olibart's Rose Palace. At this time, the prince was leaning on the sofa and frowned. Prince Cedric also sat next to him with concern.

Before he could greet the two princes, Ryan simply saluted to the two princes and asked straight to the point, "How is it? What does Your Majesty think about this?"

Olibart said with a wry smile, "It is not optimistic. You also know the level of trust of the father and the prime minister. Maybe... it can really make the prime minister vigorously promote the automatic production line."

"Tsk!"

Ryan scratched his hair in annoyance. "It seems that some of the people around President Irina trusted have defected to the Prime Minister. I have just learned about this from Dr. Schmidt. It is impossible to say that no one can inform you."

Automated production is not bad, but it is an absolute double-edged sword. If you act too rush, it can easily cause huge turmoil in Ereponia.

Unemployed workers have lost their source of life, and it is undoubtedly very difficult to find a suitable new job in a short period of time.

Even if the empire does not have demonstrations, the resentment of these unemployed workers will inevitably spread gradually, which will affect social stability.
